Several people suggested that we share Julie Whitaker's article "2015 Oscar-Nominated Movies You Can Watch From Home." After all, it's usually difficult for parents (especially of younger children) to find time to get out to a movie.
My partner and I still go to the movies, though it's only about once a month for the latest special effects bonanza. We prefer to stream more thoughtful movies at home. You know, with a glass of wine.
2,100 miles in an automobile with two kids might sound like a nightmare. But with a hearty sense of adventure (and humor) it could be the best trip ever.
When adults play they are able to let go of daily stresses and be present in the moment, if only briefly. Playing with our kids can be excellent medicine.
